That fireplace is pretty nifty.

I remembered how annoyed I was when I got a page, broke all my gear down, found a payphone, and then got a question about my timesheet from the secretary as a reward. I just quit responding to pages. Waste of my time.

Yea, that really kicked my ass. Sore back, and sore knees. Boss just texted me and said he's still sick, so I'm not working tomorrow. Fortuitous development :^)

Holy shit Knotty! Sorry for your loss. Hope life gets a little better for you in the coming year, Going back to Massachusetts might help a bit. Maybe at least get your mind off things.

Bummer stig. Would chemical heaters in your gloves help til the saw heater's fixed?

Sorry Knotty :^( I forget if you mentioned... How long do the episodes last? Hope you get over it soon.

I used to use Barge on my Birkenstocks to seal the cork. Staked a house on a freshly cleared lot today. Maryland Tree Experts must've had a rough time out there. I found a broken piece of saw case and this...

ShoeGoo works well. Glue it, clamp it, wait two days.

I posted a picture of my boots where the rebar went through. They're at the office, and I have the spot cleaned, and the ShoeGoo purchased. I'm just trying to find a scrap of nylon to glue over the hole. I can't remember where I put it. It won't be pretty, but it'll work for a pair of work...

Yea, I think I could use it for my work saw, though I'd encourage you to give some thought into keeping it. A case like that can make a nice kit as a quick grab saw for some fast work. A quart of fuel, quart of oil, spare chain, brush, scrench, bar cleaner, file... It all sits ready to go, and...

Is that a 20" or 24" bar? It'll pull 24", but 20" is a better match imo.

I like real old saws for appearance; Stuff from the 50s-60s. Industrial design from that era(and below for other products) was beautiful. For stuff I actually use, I like new stuff. I might use a saw from the 80s that was dropped in my lap, or had sentimental value, but otherwise, new is better...

Didn't do anything today. Hung out around the house and watched Star Trek. Just gave Spot her jul gift. It was just what she wanted. A can of food(extra gravy) warmed on the woodstove. She's very pleased.

I printed it to pdf. It doesn't include pics, and formatting is kinda ugly, but it's readable. https://cloud.disroot.org/s/TeGkB6Q66GotoKK

I was pondering the label on the other whiskey I bought where they stated they use a 'high rye mash bill' to create a MD style rye. That was contrary to what I understood to be a MD rye. So, I looked it up. Here's an article from NYT, that presents a much less clear picture. I can read the...

:^D MD was BIG in rye production years ago. It's a distinct style. Historically you had PA rye(Monongahela), which was rye heavy, spicy, and less sweetness. MD rye was lighter on the rye, so it got more sweetness from the corn. Rye has to be at least 51% rye to be called rye. Bourbon has to be...

I wanted to get my daughter+boyfriend a bottle of rum, so I went to the localish "premium" grocery store(Wegmans) so I could get sushi for breakfast. Holy Shit, that was the wrong plan! EVERYBODY was out and about there. I think I have PTSD now :^O Got the rum from the liquor store, and also...

No, It's an indie near BigLots in Edgewood. I've driven past numerous times. I suspected it would suck, but it's a nifty store. I'll be stopping in regularly. Interesting mix of goods, and good prices.

I can sleep just about anytime, anywhere; borderline narcolepsy. I guess my problem's the reverse. If I have a long drive, I try to plan a rest stop if it's at night so I can take a nap. I don't deal with nights well out and about. I'm always tired, and would rather be home. Mornings are great...

That's too bad. I hate seeing trees do poorly as a group. Trees die as part of a natural process, and it's sad when a particularly nice specimen dies off, but it's a part of life. When whole groups die from bugs and disease, it's especially shocking.
